Alzheimer's disease was officially recognized a hundred years ago, but there's still no effective medical approach for it. Alzheimer's can be a devastating disease that can make a person disappear a little bit at a time. Eventually the person that you knew is no longer there which can be a hopeless experience. There is new understanding about this condition that has led to new approaches to help arrest and even reverse it. Most of you have heard of beta amyloid plaque which many thought was the cause of this disease. This plaque has been found on MRIs and used to be a way of judging the outcome of this disease. A drug was discovered that can reduce this beta amyloid plaque and was rushed into testing. The surprising results were that it accelerated the disease. The trials were quickly abandoned and a new understanding emerged of what was actually going on in the condition.

It has since been discovered this plaque is actually the body's defense against damage to the brain. Beta amyloid plaque is now understood as being in antimicrobial peptide. In other words is part of the body's immune system against damage. Recent studies have shown that while the adaptive immune system has limited access to the brain, the central nervous system can still mount a robust response to invading pathogens, antimicrobial peptides and the innate immune system. Vitamin D has been found to be one of the protective nutrients in controlling the damage to the brain. Even though vitamin D is not a cure-all for Alzheimer's, studies have shown it to benefit not only Alzheimer's but Parkinson's disease.

Studies have also found that the herpes simplex virus (the cold sore virus) is one of the different organisms that can initiate damage to the brain. This particular virus has been found in 90% of adults even though they don't show outbreaks of cold sores. But there are usually other factors besides this virus alone that sets up the process of damage within the brain. Chlamydia (chlamydophila penedumoniae) is also another microorganism found in the brain.

Microglia are a type of glial cell that are the resident macrophages (cells that consume microorganisms) of the brain and spinal cord, and thus act as the first and main form of active immune defense. These cells are found around the damaged area of the brain in Alzheimer's. These cells are activated in inflammatory chemistry and can be triggered by viruses, excitatory proteins, a lack of vitamin D and obesity.

Studies show that obesity is a contributing factor to brain disease due to the inflammatory chemistry that is overdeveloped. So part of the process of preventing neurodegenerative disease is controlling inflammation and oxidation stress.

In a UCLA study, patients made dramatic lifestyle changes. They avoided simple carbs, gluten and processed foods. They increased their fish intake, took yoga and meditated. They were instructed to take melatonin, get adequate sleep, incorporate vitamin B-12, vitamin D-3 and fish oil. Within six months, nine of the 10 memory-loss patients saw a noticeable improvement in memory. One patient, who was in the late stages of Alzheimer's, did not show improvement.

Spending time in meditation or prayer can have a calming affect on your nervous system. Chiropractic adjustments are a very effective way to reduce stress to the nervous system and maintain proper nerve function as well as organ and glandular function. Also regular chiropractic adjustments enhance immune function which can be important with Alzheimer's. Exercise is a way of controlling cortisol which is a stress and inflammation producing hormone from the adrenal glands.

Vega testing is an excellent way to determine which of these products your body might need. Nobody needs all of these. Also non-GMO foods and organic foods would be smart if you're dealing with advanced memory issues. The use of Stevia over artificial sweeteners would be recommended and artificial food coloring and other food additives could be an issue. Eat foods in their natural state.

Drugs that damage the brain

Statin cholesterol-lowering drugs, antidepressants, beta blockers, diuretics, tamoxifen, methotrexate, anti-inflammatories, oral contraceptives, antibiotics, nighttime pain relievers, antihistamines, and other sleep aids, such as: Excedrin PM, Tylenol PM, Nytol, Sominex, Unisom, Benadryl, Dramamine and vaccines.

DIET: Foods that trigger headaches For many headache and migraine sufferers, certain foods can act as triggers. Tyramine (is a naturally occurring monoamine compound and trace amine derived from the amino acid tyrosine.) can cause your blood pressure to rise, which can trigger headaches in some people. If you experience this reaction, you may want to avoid other trigger foods, such as: Smoked or cured meats, Aged cheeses, Citrus fruits, Sauerkraut, Soy sauce, Red wine, And certain beers.Research shows that tyramine in grapes can have a negative effect on certain antidepressants called MAOIs.

IN THE NEWS: Could Wearable Computers Be as Harmful as Cigarettes? Wireless phones and other gadgets have the potential to cause all sorts of health problems, from headaches to brain tumors. Wearable technology devices are reasonably safe, provided they do not have a 3G connection built in. Children are especially vulnerable to cell phone radiation because their brain tissues are more absorbent, their skulls are thinner, and their relative size is smaller.The findings show that 3G phones may cause more harm than earlier versions, raising the risk of brain cancer four-fold. It also appears to have shorter latency period—just five to 10 years, compared to about 25 years for earlier mobile phone versions.

CONDITION OF THE WEEK:SPORTS INJURIES most sports injuries respond very well to chiropractic care. In most cases the injury can be resolved without drugs or surgery and the patient can be returned to sports activity in a stronger physical condition. Some sports injuries are due to the fact the bodies out of alignment in the first place. When you put your body under increased pressure due to alignment issues then you’re more prone to an injury. Chiropractic studies show that athletes that receive regular chiropractic care sustain fewer injuries and recover faster from the injuries they do receive. Be it a kid in school sporting activities or the weekend warrior trying to get ready for the marathon, chiropractic can help you reach your best performance.

DiaDENS

Our bodies, like the universe itself, are alive with electromagnetic forces. Life energy extends beyond the boundaries of our skin, as the latest research shows. By accessing the biological fields surrounding the human body and altering them in beneficial ways it is possible to treat diseases in a radical new way.

Welcome to “DiaDENS” a biofeedback pain eraser.

Today's advanced biofeedback systems are ultra-hi-tech scientifically produced instruments that use sophisticated biofeedback techniques employing a new type of "Virtual-Medicine" technology. The finest scientifically enhanced biofeedback devices turn out to be DENAS/DiaDENS (DENS) devices. DENAS and DiaDENS (DENS instruments) help you normalize your body voltage, advance your healing to help bring you good health

DENAS and DiaDENS are today's advanced versions of SCENAR®** biofeedback apparatus that were originally produced in the 70s by Russian medical organizations. They were initially designed and intended for cosmonauts' use.

It is Important to Note that in Russia today, DENS-Therapy is a part of the mainstream medicine and it is registered by the Russian Ministry of Health as an official independent method of treatment. It is taught in medical colleges as a separate discipline and may be pursued by students as a major professional specialization.

There is often no need to suffer from pain, soreness, out of balance body voltage, acute distension, distress, or almost any superficial infliction, illness, ailment, major pathology or physical disorder.  Painful arthritis and osteoporosis can be of the past for you.  Additionally, a DENAS or DiaDENS instrument can help alleviate conditions such as an aching backache, muscular pains, caused by overwork and  activity as well as many internal related pathologies.

When ordinary medical remedies which involve drugs or pharmaceutical  medicines fail you and cause new problems, it may be time for you to consider this new "space-age" solution.  Additionally, when you discover that pharmaceutical and so-called methods of prevention are not really helping to correct the cause of your ailment, you may want try a new and different method.   That "new method" is actually tried-and-true and proven effective throughout Europe, Australia and Russia.  That method is DENS-therapy.  DENS-therapy is really effective and may be an excellent solution to help you resolve problems with your health problems.  DENS-therapy provides a solution that is a hi-tech, "Star Trek" type of therapy, a much less invasive solution.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

The only thing you will feel is a slight sensation caused by the DENS device.  In short, properly using a DENS device may bring you wonderful relief and to a healthy state of strength, and wellness.

Biofeedback, via the DENAS and DiaDENS instruments, invokes your natural immune system.  The instrument, and your own physical biofeedback, instructs the apparatus to generate a signal that will be appropriate for dealing with your physical areas of distress.  As a result, your physical system will quickly provide normal spontaneous healing energy to help reduce, or eliminate, your painful infliction or hurt, and to begin natural healing.

                                           What to expect

 As the DiaDens is moved across an area of the body and it picks up an area that needs treatment there will be both be tonal alert as well as a sensation of “stickiness” along the skin. This is where the device will start delivering the necessary electrical frequencies to rebalance the body. This will not only have a pain elimination affect but will also stimulate a more balanced function to that area of the body. It is not only beneficial for pain but can also help function of the internal organs.

 The electrical frequencies that your body needs can be delivered directly from the unit or through pads placed on the body. The pain and symptom relief will have an accumulative effect. In other words if the first treatment caused a two-hour relief of symptoms then the second treatment could cause 4 to 6 hours of relief until the underlying problem has been completely resolved.

Very often after just a few moments of treatment, patients will sigh (called the “Diadens sigh” by experienced practitioners).

Sighing and yawning are known to be signs of emotional release. When emotional tension is released, the way a person breathes becomes deeper, more relaxed, and normalized.  So breath, emotions, and neuropeptides are closely related.

Benign essential tremor, also known as familial tremor or hereditary tremor is a progressive neurological condition that causes a rhythmic trembling of the hands, head, voice, legs or trunk. As with Katherine Hepburn many people mistake this condition with Parkinson's disease (tremor is a primary symptom of Parkinson's Disease). Other types of tremors are progressive disorders which need to be addressed with the appropriate medical and nutritional supplements in the hope of decreasing further degradation.  Some other causes of tremors are cardiovascular stroke, head injuries, multiple sclerosis, stress, overactive thyroid, Magnesium or B Vitamin deficiency.

DIET: FOODS FOR STRONGER NAILS AND THICKER HAIR Whey protein

"Your hair needs protein to produce keratin, the proteins that make hair strong," says Dr. Zeichner. Red meat is loaded with protein, and it also has another nutrient that's important for hair and nail health: iron. Blueberries "Antioxidants help protect your body's cells against free radical damage," says Erin Palinski, RD Almonds Not only are almonds a good source of protein, they're loaded with magnesium, which helps maintain healthy hair and nails. Oysters "Zinc is needed for many biological processes, including making proteins like those in your hair and nails," explains Dr. Zeichner. Eggs are a good source of protein and contain some vitamin D, and they also have biotin. Salmon is a good source of biotin and protein, along with omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce inflammation, and promote healthy, moisturized skin. Brazil nuts Rats deficient in selenium (a trace element linked to protection against oxidative stress) have sparse hair growth, says a study in PLoS One. Just six to eight Brazil nuts meet almost 800% of your recommended daily value, according to the National Institutes of Health.

Many Americans, at different seasons of the year, are plagued by symptoms of runny noses, watery eyes, congested glands, persistent coughs, and recurring upper respiratory infections, all due to allergic reactions.   Allergies can be simply defined as the body’s inappropriate response to certain substances, usually proteins (antigens).  These proteins can be ragweed, grass pollens, any plant substance found in the air, a particular food or a chemical that is ingested or inhaled.  These antigens can cause immune system responses, classically the congested, runny noses, watery eyes, congested sinuses and lungs; but allergic responses can also include depression, asthma, joint pain, diarrhea, constipation, and many other symptoms.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK TO ORDER

We call these responses inappropriate because everyone will breathe in the ragweed or grass pollen, or eat certain foods, but only a certain percentage of the population will have reactions to these as antigens.  These reactions thus represent an inappropriate response to common substances.  In other words, the body interprets these common substances as invading organisms, and the immune system mounts a response as if it was being attacked.  However, the particular antigens usually do not cause any tissue damage under normal circumstances.  In fact, the damages (or symptoms that are produced within the body) are usually due to the body’s inappropriate immune system response to the substance.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK TO ORDER

It is this inappropriate response that needs to be treated - and not just the symptoms of the allergies.  The standard medical approach to allergies is to suppress the symptoms with dangerous antihistamines, cortisone preparations, and other medications that are designed only to repress the body’s responses.  This method is one that I term a “COVER-UP” method.  It does not help a patient with his or her allergies; it only artificially  covers up the symptoms of these allergies.  The question that needs to be asked is, “Why do these people have inappropriate allergy responses?"

The answer to this is:  the nervous system has an imbalance in the way it responds to certain proteins or other substances, and it is that response that must be corrected, not suppressed.
Below listed is the protocol which we have developed through trial and error over the years and with which we are currently  enjoying great success  at Keefe Clinic.

First of all, we understand that it is not the ragweed or any other antigen that is the problem, but it is the body’s response to it that is the problem.  Therefore, we look to the nervous system as the root cause, because the imbalance is within the nervous system, which then causes the abnormal reaction.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

1) The first area of treatment is that of homeopathy.  Homeopathy is a system based on the principle of “like cures like”.  In the case of the allergies, the substance that would be used would be the antigen (the pollen, ragweed, food, etc) that produces the improper symptoms.  This antigen is diluted several times to form a product that will help the body adjust its inappropriate reaction to become an appropriate reaction.  By giving this antigen in a diluted fashion, and by diluting it enough that it will not produce an allergy reaction by itself, a slight response is produced that will gradually desensitize the body to the offending substance.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK TO ORDER

For instance, if you have an allergy to ragweed pollen, when you breathe it in, your immune system begins to fight the ragweed as if it was an invading bacteria or virus.  Thus, we would take ragweed pollen and dilute it down to a level where it will not cause that same immune response - indeed, at this level, it has been found that it will produce an opposite response.  In other words, it will re-calibrate the body in such a way that it will not react to this pollen as a foreign invader.  Over a period of time, by ingesting diluted antigens, the body will build up a resistance to this inappropriate response (allergic reaction). This strengthening of the body can lead to a permanent cure for this allergy.  The homeopathic treatment program is similar to the allergy injection program practiced in the United States.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK TO ORDER

In fact, when an allergist gives an injection of diluted pollens, he is practicing a crude form of homeopathy.  We say "crude" because the homeopathic physicians developed this technique in Europe over a hundred years ago, and they used very precise dilutions.  We are very happy to be able to offer homeopathic Allergy Mixes in our office which can be customized to your particular allergies- especially because we feel this is quite superior to the often painful injection process used by medical allergists.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Allergy mixes are liquids given by mouth in small doses on a regular basis - easily administered even to very small children.  These custom-made mixes represent the antigens (environmental, in foods, and chemicals) to which you might be sensitive.  These particular products sometimes require changing in potency in order to effect a permanent cure.  Most people start out using a 6x potency, and most will develop a permanent cure with that potency alone.  But some patients require the changing of potencies as they progress through the treatment program.  The potency can go from a 6x dilution all the way up to a 500x dilution, or higher,  before some are desensitized totally to a particular antigen.  Thus it is essential that a patient keep us informed on how he or she is responding to the treatment program in order for the allergy mix to be adjusted as needed.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

2) The next approach in allergy work that we use is re-establishing a normal function of the nervous system in regard to these antigens.  For this we utilize Chiropractic care.  Chiropractic, of course, helps relieve nerve pressure and establishes normal nerve functioning within the body. Vertebra can lose their normal position and crowd the nerve root causing disruption of the normal control over the body.  Many disease processes have their start from subluxation complexes that were neglected because there was no pain and the person did not have his or her spine checked for problems.  Chiropractic adjustments are safe and effective for many of the most common health problems that we suffer.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

3) It has also been found that particular antigens will disrupt certain electrical-type circuits within the body. In acupuncture, these circuits are called meridians.  Several points which show less resistance to electrical current are found along the meridians, and these points can be mapped out by use of electronic machines that register skin resistance in the body.  It has been found that there are twelve meridians that are found on both sides of the body, as well as two meridians that are found along the center of the body, both in the front and in the back.  These meridians are associated with certain functions, organs, muscles and parts of the body.  Each meridian has a particular name, e.g., the kidney meridian (associated with certain parts of the body, including the kidneys).  There is a liver meridian, a heart meridian, etc.  These meridians are electrical circuits that tend to be associated with these key organs and muscles.  It is found that certain antigens will disrupt these electrical circuits in the body and produce the allergy response.  Through the acupuncture-allergy technique, we determine which circuits are disrupted by a particular antigen, and then by a proper stimulation of the key points within the meridian, as a particular antigen is being held or placed on the body, we cause the nervous system to re-adjust how it responds to that antigen.  In a few cases, this can produce almost instantaneous reversal of the allergy response in the body.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK TO ORDER

This is a new technique, and promises to be a very effective way of re-programming the nervous system in its inappropriate response to antigens.  This treatment program can vary as to number of treatments required to produce a permanent cure, but a number of patients will respond within 1-6 treatments when we are dealing with a particular antigen.  Depending on the number of antigens with which we have to deal, we can schedule allergy acupuncture treatment sessions for each substance, as we determine the number of sessions we will have to do to develop a long-term cure for your allergies.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

4) Nutritional therapy is another important part of an over-all program. Weak organs are involved in allowing the body to have an allergic reaction.  Giving nutritional support to these weak organs will help a patient recover his health, and allow him to end the cycle of the chronic allergy sufferer who normally has episode after episode of allergy symptoms.  Through the use of properly selected products, the allergic system can be returned to normal function.  Remember:   allergies do not represent a normally functioning body.  Proper nutrition can be an effective tool in returning the body back to health in most health care problems.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

It is important to realize that the treatments I have outlined here are not done for the purpose of suppressing symptoms; they are not done to cover up your body’s response to the antigens.  They are done to re-adjust the body’s reaction to antigens back to normal.  These techniques are designed to develop a  CURE.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Not all allergies will respond as quickly in some patients as they do in others.  During the treatment program, symptom relief can be an important part of the overall treatment along with the corrective process. However, instead of utilizing strong, potent, and dangerous drugs to help relieve symptoms, we offer natural, herbal preparations and other natural products that can produce the same symptomatic relief without the negative drug effect that is seen in most over-the-counter and prescription medications used for allergies.  Thus, we do not overlook that need for symptom relief; however,  our goal is to correct the allergic response, not just to suppress it.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

We believe that each person is unique and that each patient's program must be individualized. Not all the techniques we have spelled out will be used with each patient.

Chiropractic and natural healthcare offers powerful treatments to resolve carpal tunnel syndrome at its root cause. A high percentage times subluxations with the lower neck affecting the brachial plexus is the roots of most carpal tunnel syndrome. There are also deficiencies in key B vitamins that can lead to inflammation of the nerves at the wrist. Sometimes misalignment at the elbow, wrist or hand can also be a source of inflammation.

He was doing pretty well, but he was disturbed by some local kids who would sneak into his watermelon patch at night and eat his watermelons. After some careful thought, he came up with a clever idea that he thought would scare the kids away for sure. He made up a sign and posted it in the field. The next day, the kids show up and they saw the sign which read, "Warning! One of the watermelons in this field has been injected with cyanide." The kids ran off, made up their own sign and posted it next to the pastor's sign. When the pastor returned, he surveyed the field. He noticed that no watermelons are missing, but the sign next to his read, "Now there are two!"

IN THE NEWS:PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD TAKE IODIDE SUPPLEMENT; DOCS SAY Pregnant women should take an iodide-containing supplement to protect the brain development of their babies, according to the leading U.S. group of pediatricians. Iodine, which the body can get from iodide, is needed to make the thyroid hormones that are required for children’s brain development before and after birth. “Women who are childbearing age need to pay attention to this topic as well, because about half of the pregnancies in the U.S. are unplanned,” Dr. Jerome Paulson said. “Women in the early part of the pregnancy may not realize they’re pregnant.”

WELLNESS: TOXINS IN THE ENVIRONMENT MAY ACCELERATE AGING, STUDY FINDS Avoiding environmental toxins may be the key to preserving your youth, according to new research. Just as exposure to carcinogens increases a person’s risk for cancer, experts now believe a class of environmental toxins – known as gerontogens – may put people at an increased risk for accelerated aging. Toxins present in cigarette smoke, UV rays and chemotherapy are all suspected gerontogens - capable of accelerating the rate at which a person ages. “Genetic studies have taught us only 30 percent of aging is genetic, meaning the other 70 percent comes from the environment,” study author Dr. Norman Sharpless, director of the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of North Carolina.

CONDITION OF THE WEEK:Prospective Case Series on the Effects of Lumbosacral Manipulation on Dysmenorrhea (Painful periods) Over a 4-week period, 16 females were screened for symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea and motion restrictions of the lumbosacral spine. Thirteen subjects were enrolled into the study. Using the 95% confidence interval (CI) as an estimate, clinically meaningful changes (<5) in general abdominal pain and lower back pain were evident for most patients during the treatment phase, whereas for lower abdominal pain, the improvements were subject and cycle dependent. This prospective case series suggests the possibility that menstrual pain associated with primary dysmenorrhea may be alleviated by treating motion segment restrictions of the lumbosacral spine with a drop table technique.

CONDITION OF THE WEEK: LEG PAIN “SCIATICA” The term sciatica describes the symptoms of leg pain and possibly tingling, numbness or weakness that originates in the lower back and travels through the buttock and down the large sciatic nerve in the back of the leg.Chiropractic offers a non-invasive (non-surgical), drug-free treatment option. The goal of chiropractic care is to restore spinal movement, thereby improving function while decreasing pain and inflammation. Depending on the cause of the sciatica, a chiropractic treatment plan may cover several different treatment methods, including but not limited to spinal adjustments, ice/heat therapy, ultrasound, TENS, and rehabilitative exercises.

DIET: IS YOUR BODY BURNING UP WITH DISEASE? It is becoming increasingly clear that chronic inflammation is the root cause of many serious illnesses - including heart disease, many cancers, and Alzheimer's disease. We all know inflammation on the surface of the body as local redness, heat, swelling and pain. It is the cornerstone of the body's healing response, bringing more nourishment and more immune activity to a site of injury or infection. But when inflammation persists or serves no purpose, it damages the body and causes illness. Stress, lack of exercise, genetic predisposition, and exposure to toxins (like secondhand tobacco smoke) can all contribute to such chronic inflammation, but dietary choices play a big role as well. Learning how specific foods influence the inflammatory process is the best strategy for containing it and reducing long-term disease risks. ASK FOR THE LIST OF ANTI-INFLAMATION FOODS

IN THE NEWS: Zohydro: Why this new painkiller could spark another addiction epidemic The controversial drug is Zohydro, an extended-release painkiller containing the already widely used opioid, hydrocodone.  The company claims that acetaminophen overdose is the leading cause of acute liver failure in the United States, and 63 percent of these cases are caused by hydrocodone-acetaminophen combination drugs.  Zohydro is meant to provide pain relief without this threat of liver toxicity. But addiction experts claim this argument isn’t enough to outweigh the potential dangers posed by the painkiller.  Because of its extremely high dosage and lack of abuse deterrents, many believe Zohydro could easily ignite another addiction epidemic – as well as a new wave of overdose deaths. “I treat addiction, and see countless young people come in – a lot of guys in their late 20s, early 30s – who had a sports injury and were given an opiate.  I’m seeing them years later, and it’s devastated their lives,” Dr. Dana Jane Saltzman, a licensed acupuncturist and addiction specialist in New York City, told FoxNews.com. “...It’s really a lifelong struggle, and a lot of these kids wouldn’t be addicted if [opioids] weren’t so readily available.”

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,The war against illegal drug use has been going on for decades, but now it seems the “war on drugs” should have a new target… Legal drug addiction is taking lives in record numbers.

In the UK, 1 million people are addicted to over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription painkillers and tranquilizers; that’s significantly more than the number addicted to illegal drugs.1

In the US, it’s a similar story. There were four times more deaths among women from prescription painkiller overdose than for cocaine and heroin deaths combined in 2010.2

Dr Keefe, Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,Legal drug addiction is tricky because it often starts out with a prescription obtained from a doctor. Many people find themselves addicted to painkillers before they even realize what’s happened, often after taking the drugs to recover from surgery or treat chronic back, or other, pain.

Three Factors That Might Increase Your Risk of Becoming Addicted to Painkillers

Painkillers work by interacting with receptors in your brain resulting in a decrease in the perception of pain. They are inherently addictive, as they also create a temporary feeling of euphoria, followed by dysphoria, that can easily lead to physical dependence and addiction. However, why certain people become addicted while others get by unfazed has remained a mystery.

Researchers from the University of Derby set out to determine what might be influencing painkiller addiction and dependence by conducting an anonymous survey of people who had pain and had used painkillers in the last month. They found three predictors that they said identified those most at risk of developing painkiller dependence. It included those who:3

  • Used prescription painkillers more frequently
  • Have a prior history of substance abuse (often unrelated to pain relief)
  • Are less accepting of pain or less able to cope with pain

According to the authors, pain, prior substance abuse and psychological factors may all play a role in a person’s likelihood of addiction. They concluded:

“Based on these findings, a preliminary model is presented with three types of influence on the development of painkiller dependence: 1) pain leading to painkiller use, 2) risk factors for substance-related problems irrespective of pain, and 3) psychological factors related to pain.”

Painkiller Addiction Knows No Bounds

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.The face of drug addiction in the US and around the globe is changing. You can certainly not gauge who is an addict by looks or occupation. In fact, painkiller addiction spans all ages and walks of life.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

For instance, a significant number of older adults, particularly those in the baby boomer generation, are struggling with both illicit and prescription drug abuse.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) reported that the number of people in their 50s who are abusing illicit or prescription drugs more than doubled from 2002 to 2010, going from 2.7 to 5.8 percent in this population. Among those 65 and older, 414,000 used such drugs in 2010.4

Among seniors, the health risks of all medications are increased, because the body takes longer to break down and get rid of the drug than it does in a younger person. As a result, the drug stays in an older person's system longer, where it can cause even greater damage.

At the other end of the spectrum, one in four teens has misused a prescription drug at least once in their lifetime, according to survey results from the partnership at Drugfree.org and the MetLife Foundation.5 Prescription drugs don’t hold the same stigma as illegal recreational drugs, even though they can be just as deadly, leading teens to regard the former as a “safe” way to get high.

Prescription drugs have even been described by the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy as the “drug of choice” second only to marijuana for today’s teens.6

Sadly, some teens pay for this one “bad” decision with their lives. Drug fatalities more than doubled among teens and young adults between 2000 and 2008, and these drug-induced fatalities are not being driven by illegal street drugs. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that the most commonly abused prescription drugs like OxyContin, Vicodin, Xanax, and Soma now cause more deaths than heroin and cocaine combined.7

And while men are still more likely to die from prescription painkiller overdose, women are quickly catching up. More than 6,600 women, or 18 women every day, died from a prescription painkiller overdose in 2010. The problem, once primarily seen in inner cities, is now spanning to rural areas, hitting people of all ethnic backgrounds and income levels, from business professionals to single mothers to retirees.

Painkiller Addiction Can Easily Lead to Death

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

Painkillers (opioids) like morphine, codeine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, and fentanyl are one of the most commonly abused drug classes. These drugs are not only addictive, they can lead to slowed breathing and death if too much is taken, and the risks are compounded if you add alcohol to the equation.

Many are not aware that pain-killing drugs like fentanyl are actually 100 times more potent than natural opioids like morphine, making the addictive potential and side effects associated with prescription drug use much higher. And it doesn’t always take extremely excessive use, or even very long-term use, to have a fatal overdose.

For many, once you start taking these drugs it sets off a cascade of reactions in your body that make it extremely difficult to stop. Dr. Sanjay Gupta, associate chief of neurosurgery at Grady Memorial Hospital and CNN's chief medical correspondent, reported:8

“…after just a few months of taking the pills, something starts to change in the body. The effectiveness wears off, and patients typically report getting only about 30% pain relief, compared with when they started. Even more concerning, a subgroup of these patients develop a condition known as hyperalgesia, an increased sensitivity to pain.

As you might guess, all of this creates a situation where the person starts to take more and more pills. And even though they are no longer providing much pain relief, they can still diminish the body's drive to breathe. If you are awake you may not notice it, but if you fall asleep with too many of these pills in your system, you never wake up. Add alcohol, and the problem is exponentially worse. People who take pain or sleeping pills and drink a couple glasses of wine are playing Russian roulette.”

prostate-cancer-Dr. Keefe, Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor, neck pain, headache,Because such overdoses now kill more people than cocaine and heroin combined, more US states are now taking action to try and stop this growing problem. As USA Today reported:9

  • Alabama has instituted three new laws that give more medical personnel access to the state’s prescription monitoring program database, as well as tighten regulations on pain management clinics and making “doctor shopping” to get multiple prescriptions punishable by jail time
  • Indiana instituted new oversight powers to the state attorney general on pain management clinics and is considering mandatory annual drug screening of people prescribed opioids
  • Kentucky now requires pain clinics to be licensed and mandates that physicians check electronic prescription records before writing opioid prescriptions
  • Washington state has set dosage limits for physicians who prescribe pain medications, and prescriptions over a certain amount must be approved by a pain specialist
  • New York has a requirement that physicians and pharmacists check the state’s drug-monitoring program database before prescribing opioids

Managing Your Pain the Drug-Free Way

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.Many of those addicted to painkillers started taking the drugs not to get high, but to control pain – often back pain. The solution, then, is to avoid taking the drugs in the first place, an option many physicians neglect to offer to their pain patients. If you are suffering from pain, I suggest you work with a knowledgeable health care practitioner to determine what's really triggering your pain, and then address the underlying cause. If you have chronic pain, try these first, before even thinking about prescription painkillers of any kind.

  1. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), which is a drug-free approach for pain management of all kinds. EFT borrows from the principles of acupuncture, in that it helps you balance out your subtle energy system.

It helps resolve underlying, often subconscious, negative emotions that may be exacerbating your physical pain. By stimulating (tapping) well-established acupuncture points with your fingertips, you rebalance your energy system, which tends to dissipate pain.

  1. Astaxanthin: One of the most effective fat-soluble antioxidants known. It has very potent anti-inflammatory properties and in many cases works far more effectively than anti-inflammatory drugs. Higher doses are typically required and one may need 8 mg or more per day to achieve this benefit.
  2. Ginger: This herb has potent anti-inflammatory activity and offers pain relief and stomach-settling properties. Fresh ginger works well steeped in boiling water as a tea or grated into vegetable juice.
  3. Curcumin: In a study of osteoarthritis patients, those who added 200 mg of curcumin a day to their treatment plan had reduced pain and increased mobility.10 A past study also found that a turmeric extract composed of curcuminoids blocked inflammatory pathways, effectively preventing the overproduction of a protein that triggers swelling and pain.
  4. Boswellia: Also known as boswellin or "Indian frankincense," this herb contains specific active anti-inflammatory ingredients. This is one of my personal favorites as I have seen it work well with many rheumatoid arthritis patients.
  5. Krill Oil: The omega-3 fats EPA and DHA contained in krill oil have been found by many animal and clinical studies to have anti-inflammatory properties that may be beneficial for pain.
  6. Bromelain: This enzyme, found in pineapples, is a natural anti-inflammatory. It can be taken in supplement form, but eating fresh pineapple, including some of the bromelain-rich stem, may also be helpful.
  7. Cetyl Myristoleate (CMO): This oil, found in fish and dairy butter, acts as a "joint lubricant" and an anti-inflammatory. I have used this for myself to relieve ganglion cysts and a mild annoying carpal tunnel syndrome that pops up when I type too much on non-ergonomic keyboards. I used a topical preparation for this.
  8. Evening Primrose, Black Currant, and Borage Oils: These contain the essential fatty acid gamma linolenic acid (GLA), which is useful for treating arthritic pain.
  9. Cayenne Cream: Also called capsaicin cream, this spice comes from dried hot peppers. It alleviates pain by depleting the body's supply of substance P, a chemical component of nerve cells that transmits pain signals to your brain.
  10. Methods such as yoga, acupuncture, meditation, hot and cold packs, and even holding hands can also result in astonishing pain relief without any drugs.

VEGA testing is a simple biofeedback procedure.  Your nervous system is a highly sophisticated information retrieval and intelligent response output organ.  Your nervous system is a bio computer more sophisticated any computer made by man.  Part of the nervous system retrieves and analyzes information the other part responds to that information.

bio-resonance-kit, Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,

CLICK PIC

During the VEGA test your nervous system is exposed to several different substances that it either responds to or doesn't.  Probably the easiest way to explain this is if someone has an allergy to ragweed.  In an allergy test with VEGA testing we would expose the body to the vibratory rates of ragweed.  Because the body recognizes this as an allergen we would monitor a response.

Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,

This is an objective response that is repeatable.  We observe this response in the apparent change in arm or leg lengths.  The response of tapping the knee and observing the reflex extension of the lower leg is the exact same reflex we observe.  If you elicited the reflex at the knee with the leg straight you would observe a temporary shortening of that leg as the muscles contracted.  This biofeedback reflex mechanism is the basis we use for monitoring in VEGA testing.

HISTORY

 Dr. Reinhardt Voll, M.D, Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,

CLICK PIC

VEGA Testing is based on the phenomenon of “medicine testing” found by  Dr. Reinhardt Voll, M.D., a German  medical doctor, in his work with electrical acupuncture.  Dr. Helmut Schimmel, M.D., also of Germany, later  developed Dr. Voll’s work into a system of substance testing now known as VEGA  testing.

VEGA testing is based on the effect  of electrical resistance changes of the  skin on certain acupuncture points (low electrical resistance areas)  in  response to differing substances that are either beneficial or detrimental  to the body.

Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,

Dr. George Goodheart, D.C., U.S.A.,  discovered in the 1950’s that the muscles of the body, in the presence of certain substances, would either  become weaker or stronger.  This finding is part of a diagnostic system called "Applied Kinesiology". Based  on this phenomena, a simple arm or  leg check can monitor the body’s  response to any given substance.

Because this particular procedure is  more objective and can be performed  repetitively without fatiguing the body,  this is the system that we use.

VEGA TESTING’S SCOPE

VEGA testing is a multi-faceted diagnostic procedure.  It can be used to determine if a patient has an allergic tendency, and, if they do have allergies, what particular antigens they are allergic to. VEGA testing allows us to find the major organs that are under the most stress. It also helps to determine the level of stress of each organ or part of the body.  It can monitor the progress that a patient is making, without having to re-run expensive laboratory tests.

Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,

The VEGA test method allows for nutritional evaluation to determine if there are serious mineral or vitamin deficiencies, as well as food overloads, e.g., over-consumption of salts or sugars, proteins, etc.  VEGA testing also gives some information about the emotional status of a patient.  We can determine if the nervous system is being stressed by some strong deep emotions, and what possible remedies might be effective in helping the emotional processing.

The VEGA test method allows for determining what nutritional products or remedies might be effective in the treatment of certain conditions.  VEGA test method also allows for the determination of what is called, “Causal Chain”, or the domino effect that is taking place in the body. Most of the time when one organ malfunctions, it affects another organ, which affects another, etc.  To find the original, or most stressed organ, can be very important in understanding a patient’s particular health problems.

VEGA test method is a quick, easy method of developing an acupuncture diagnosis as to which meridians or electrical circuits within the body are malfunctioning.

When a patient is showing signs of an infection, VEGA testing allows for a quick evaluation to determine what is behind these acute symptoms - whether the source is a virus, bacteria, yeast overgrowth, food sensitivity, or an allergy response.

This method allows evaluation of the immune system, showing which organs in the immune system are under the most stress and need the most support.

We can determine also if a patient is suffering from geopathic stress.  This condition is due to radiations that might be influencing our health because of underground streams or mineral deposits or gases from underground; these can affect our bodies in subtle ways.

Through VEGA testing we can also tell if dental fillings are having an adverse effect on the body due to mercury leaching into the system.  It will indicate the presence of a toxic overload, and tell if that overload might be due simply to metabolic toxins, or if it is from heavy metals or insecticides that have entered through the environment’s food or water supply.

VEGA testing also can give us an idea of which areas of the body (which arteries, etc.) may be being affected by excessive cholesterol levels.

BIOLOGICAL SCORE (AGE)

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK PIC

 In the Vega test system the concept of bio-score, based on evaluating the body’s response to 21 ampules for  toxic load of the body,  relates to the level of over-all stress or disease within the body.  If we gave each organ that was malfunctioning a numerical value, then added them all up, that is the idea behind the bio-score.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK PIC

By having a score like this when starting therapy we can evaluate our treatment program any time we would like.  As the body heals itself the score will reflect this by going down.  If the score becomes fixed then a change in the treatment program becomes necessary.  The bio-score is based on the body's reaction to one or more diagnostic ampoules in a set of 21.  The more ampoules that the body reacts to, the more problems that  represents.    If you react to two ampoules, say number 10 and 21, then your score would be 21x2. If you reacted to 3, 10, 16, 21 then your score would be 21x4.  Knowing each number within your score is not important, just your top number and how  many, tell the story.  In those two examples, 21x2 would be better than 21x4.  The following tells what to expect with different readings:

TWO  SCORES: PROGNOSIS EXCELLENT MILD IMMUNE STRESS,2-6 MONTHS OF CARE.

THREE SCORES: CHRONIC IMMUNE STRESS,6-9 MONTHS OF CARE.

FOUR SCORES: IMMUNE  SYSTEM NOT COPING, ADRENAL STRESS, ALLERGIES, INFLAMMATIONS, CANDIDIASIS, FATIGUE, 9-18 MONTHS CARE..

FIVE SCORES:  IMMUNE AND ADRENAL STRESS VERY SEVERE, AUTO-IMMUNE LIKELY,1 1/2-2 1/2 yrs. 0F CARE.

SIX SCORES: PROGNOSIS POOR, SERIOUS DISEASE LIKELY, SLOW RECOVERY, 2 1/2 +yrs. OF CARE.

Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

Do you suffer from chronic pain?  Do you know someone who has dealt with long-term symptoms?  If so, you know how frustrating it can be to search for health, to try every new drug or surgery available and find you are still left with the same problem...and sometimes with new ones that the drugs or surgery caused.  There can be periods of time when people just give up and feel  that there is no hope.  Many people decide they will just have to live with the pain.

At Keefe Clinic we see many patients who have reached this point and feel discourage about trying anything new.  Then a family member or friend tells them about chiropractic and encourages them to try one more time!  In the vast majority of these cases, these people do find help that had eluded them up to that point.  In many cases their problem wasn't that hard to correct; it's just that no doctor had yet tried to treat the cause of their problems.  This seems to be the most common cause of treatment failure that I see.

The Question

Many times grateful, satisfied patients ask me, "Why didn’t my other doctors tell me this, or do what you did to help me overcome this problem?"

I understand this question, because a long time ago I asked my own chiropractic physician the very same question after he helped me overcome a condition that my family medical doctor had been totally unable to treat.  Until that point I had been programmed not to ask questions of my medical doctor and just except the treatment that I received from him as the correct and only possible approach.

The Answer

Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

My chiropractor’s answered made me look at the health care system in the US with new eyes.  He explained that the type of doctors that I saw portrayed on TV were trained in the use of drugs to cover-up symptoms of disease and not how to help the body heal itself.  In fact, outside of crisis care (like heart transplants, or acute infections, broken bones, etc.)  They had a very limited scope that they could actually help.  He taught that, although giving drugs to cover-up symptoms might make someone feel temporarily better, this just sends the problem underground or deeper within the body to get worse.

Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

The fact is that in order to secure health within the body proper diet, exercise, rest, positive attitude and the pressure free nervous system have to be in place to support good health.  The average drug therapists in the US has had little or no training in these areas.  This is why Americans spend more on health care than any country in the world and have the least to show for it.  Women in the US are outlived by women and 25 other countries while US men are outlived by men and 36 other countries.  It is hard to understand why our healthcare system is capable of transplanting organs and yet is unable to help someone stop having daily headaches without continually drugging the symptoms away.

Natural Health Care

At Keefe Clinic we believe health is a natural process and is by nature a low-tech phenomena.  High-tech belongs in crisis care which is different than health care.  Health Care includes the supporting of the body's natural processes to enhance proper function.  In natural health care we follow the principle: "first of all do no harm."  The guiding concept is a respect for the body's own intelligence built-in by our Creator.  When this life principle is expressed at 100% to each part of the body then the chance for 100% function will be the highest possible.  And 100% function would be health!

The Choice

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Most Americans don't know they have a choice.  They are often uninformed about the natural healthcare option.  Chiropractic is the world's largest natural healthcare system.  Chiropractic physicians utilize the most current knowledge available in safe natural methods to return the body back to normal function.  Symptom relief, under chiropractic care, is a product of returning the body back to healthy function.  Our motto at Keefe Clinic is, "a natural approach first, drugs second, surgery last."

If you are looking for just a quick fix, then health, true health, will always elude you.  On the other hand, if you're committed to finding health, you will be pleased with the tools you will find at Keefe Clinic that will help you reach that goal.  We care about you and your health.  We offer health care for the whole family.

What A Pain In The Neck!

 pinched_nerves, Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

Got neck pain? If so, you’re not alone since millions of Americans are in the same boat.

There are many causes, some serious, others not so serious. As you might suspect, neck pain can be related to employment, recreational activities, or other activities of daily living like finally cleaning out that garage.

Most of the time, it may be a result of more subtle reasons such as poor posture or stress.

posture-pictures-bad-Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,ure

 

Neck pain can be brought on by sleeping in a bad position (falling asleep on the couch late at night watching TV), or looking up at the stars for a time, or when seated at your computer.

From a clinical perspective, most of the time you’ve either strained a muscle, or spinal joints are subluxated, or ligaments like the disc are injured.

If your spine is unhealthy, you may lose your normal neck curve and suffer from pain, nerve irritation and disc degeneration. Although many doctors tell their patients that this is due to age, disc degeneration can be found in young children while some older adults are relatively free of it. One of the most common causes of disc degeneration is years of uncorrected subluxations. Over time uncorrected subluxations degeneration causes arthritic changes in the vertebrae such as lipping or spurring (bony growths), disc thinning and deterioration. Studies show little or no correlation between the degree of pain felt in the neck and arthritic changes found on X-rays and MRI. Subluxation degeneration is considered a defense mechanism that tries to stabilize an off-balance spine.

First of all understand your head weighs about 10 pounds. Try carrying that much weight around all day in your arms and see how it feels by day’s end!

Forward, Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

When questioned, many patients simply don’t remember what brought on their neck pain. It just hurts. Most figure it will go away and won’t do anything differently until it becomes a “quality of life” issue.

In other words, one is now having difficulty playing golf, dancing with their spouse, going to work, or playing with their children. Then and only then is one ready to make changes, which include seeking help from a healthcare professional.

Throughout this ordeal, dads try to “tough it out” compared to moms who are on the phone calling the doctor for help almost immediately. And mom is usually responsible for getting dad to do something about it, too.

More and more kids are also experiencing neck pain due to time spent on the computer, long hours studying, or as a result of more aggressive work-out schedules related to school sports.

child_back_pain_Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

Here are some simple tips since poor posture is a major contributor:

Standing:  Maintain natural curves of the spine; not too stiff or too relaxed. Tighten abdomen, tuck buttocks, hold head erect with ears positioned over shoulders.

Sitting: Sit back in chair, not on edge, feet on floor. Position rolled towel or pillow above belt line to get additional low back support.

Lying: Avoid sleeping on stomach. Lie on your side with knees bent. Use firm mattress. Use cervical pillow or position pillow so neck remains as straight (horizontal), as possible.

Chiropractic care is the most effective treatment on the planet for neck pain.

chiropractic-adjustment, Dr Keefe,  Natural Health care, pain Tulsa chiropractor,

Chiropractic spinal care corrects a severe form of spine and nerve stress known as the vertebral subluxation complex ("subluxation"). This restores proper movement to your spinal column, permitting greater energy, information and nutrients to flow over your nerves and tissues and throughout your body. When corrected, your entire spine begins to rebalance. That is why, for example, people with lower back problems, after receiving a neck adjustment from their chiropractor, find, to their surprise, that their low back pain not only starts feeling better (as well as many other problems) but they have more energy as well!

Just as a periodic dental checkup is necessary to keep your teeth healthy, so a chiropractic spinal checkup is necessary to ensure a nervous system that is free from spinal nerve stress permitting you to experience greater healing and well-being. No matter what disease or condition you have, you can benefit from a healthy spine.

Twenty million Americans see their doctors each year because of a headache.  Although headaches can be very uncomfortable and temporarily disabling, most are not associated with serious illness.

When a person has a headache, several areas of the head can hurt, including a network of nerves that extends over the scalp and certain nerves in the face, mouth and throat.

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

Rarely, headache is a symptom of a dangerous condition such cerebral aneurysm, brain tumor, stroke, TIA, meningitis, or encephalitis.  Very high blood pressure can cause headaches and this situation is a medical emergency.  However, high blood pressure usually causes no symptoms at all, despite the damage that years of high blood pressure can do to blood vessels, heart, brain, and kidneys.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

The most common type of headache is "tension headache."  Tension headaches generally develop gradually, often involve the entire head as well as the neck and shoulders.  They probably are not actually caused by increased muscle tension, although muscle relaxation techniques can be very useful in treatment.  Most people get tension headaches occasionally and these can usually be treated simply.  Some people get them often, but there are usually some useful interventions to help decrease the number of sick days.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Migraine headaches are "bad headaches."  With classic migraine, the headache is proceeded by a feeling that a headache will develop (prodrome) followed by visual phenomena such as dark or bright spots, streaks of light, or tunnel vision (aura).  The headache then develops, usually on one side.  It is throbbing in nature, accompanied by nausea and increased sensitivity to light and noise.

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

Most people with migraine headaches do not experience prodrome or aura.  Common migraine headache, like classic migraine headache is treatable and often preventable.

Migraineurs, those who develop migraine headaches often have a family history of migraine headache and they have headache triggers.  People who get headaches when they don't have enough of their daily caffeine are migraineurs.  They would have fewer migraines if they completely eliminated caffeine.  Chocolate, red wines, nuts and cheeses are common food triggers. Migraines before or during menstrual periods are common.  Not all migraineurs get terrible headaches, but some certainly do. Migraine is an important cause of lost days of school, work and enjoyment.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Women who smoke and who experience migraine headaches with aura have more than twice the risk of stroke if they take estrogen-containing birth control pills than those who use nonestrogen-based contraception.  Changing to a nonestrogen or very low-estrogen contraceptive not only can reduce the risk of stroke but can dramatically decrease the number of headaches.

Cluster headaches are headaches lasting minutes to hours that occur day after day at a similar time over a period of weeks.  They are sharp.  People with cluster headaches often describe the pain as similar to an ice pick.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

They are more common in men, and are more difficult to treat than most headaches.  Interestingly, oxygen therapy will often stop a daily cluster headache.  Many of the medications used to prevent or treat migraine headaches are used to treat cluster headaches.

Sinus headaches are those frontal headaches that some people experience with sinus infection and with changes in the weather.  Allergies can also provoke them.

HEADACHE AS A WARNING SIGN

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

See a health care professional on an urgent basis if any of the following occur:

1.  Severe, sudden headaches that seem to come on like "a bolt out of the blue."

2. Headaches that are accompanied by a loss of consciousness, alertness or sensation, confusion, or other neurological and/or personality changes.

3.  Headaches that recur in one particular area such as an eye, temple etc.

4.  Headaches that recur and are of high intensity or frequency.

5.  Headaches that are accompanied by neck stiffness and fever.

6.  Headaches that are associated with head injury.

7.  There is a change in the nature or frequency of headaches.

8.  The worst headache in one's life.

9. Temporary change in vision or visual acuity may simply be a sign of migraine headache but deserves special attention if new.

TREATMENT

Dr Keefe, Natural Health care, pain, Tulsa chiropractor,

To avoid headaches, employ good health habits.  These include adequate sleep, healthy diet, regular exercise and good stress management.  Quitting smoking is essential in reducing the risks for all headaches.

Relaxation and related stress reduction therapies can diminish the frequency and intensity of headaches.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

It's true you can always take a pain pill for a headache but will that really treat the cause?  If you have regular headaches it's important to understand their cause.  A recent study of headaches determined chiropractic care was the most effective treatment for headaches on the planet.

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

This indicates that spinal subluxations (misalignments) are at the roots of most headaches.  Pain pills might short-circuit the pain signal but it won't correct the misalignment.  The nerve pressure, the misalignment is causing, will produce other health problems if not corrected.  So using pain pills for headaches are both shortsighted and potentially dangerous for your health.  Dangerous not only because you're allowing a condition time to develop but also because pain pills can cause devastating effects to the stomach, kidneys and liver, to name a few.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Headaches can also be coming from other causes like being toxic, hormonal imbalances, allergies, electrolyte and other nutritional deficiencies.  Problems with your body handling stress can be another source of headaches.  Simply taking a pain pill does not address any of these issues.  As a Chiropractic Physician my job is to search for the cause of your condition.  Once we understand why you headaches are there then the proper course of correction is usually evident.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Over the years I've seen thousands of patients become permanently free of their chronic reoccurring headaches through natural health care.  Chiropractic can help you also.  Always seek to find a permanent solution to your health problems. Enjoy life.

IN THE NEWS: NATURAL RELIEF FOR ANDROPAUSE

By Chris Kilham Published October 09, 2013

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Chris Kilham and natives with Tongkat Ali root (Kilham)

While women undergo menopause, it appears that middle-aged men also experience their own very significant period of change called andropause – sometimes referred to as man-o-pause. Andropause is caused by a steady decline in two valuable hormones: testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). As these hormones decline, things indeed change. Though symptoms vary from one man to another, andropause can result in lower libido, erectile dysfunction, sleep disorders, fatigue, loss of mental sharpness and an inverse change in the ratio of lean muscle to fat.

Andropause is also referred to as partial androgen deficiency in aging males (PADAM). An androgen is any hormone that helps in the development and maintenance of male characteristics, including secondary sex characteristics. These include the growth of body hair, muscle mass and strength, growth of the penis and testicles, sperm production, broadening of the chest and enlargement of the voice box.

Starting at age 30, the body’s levels of testosterone decline by approximately 1 percent every year. Thus by age 50 or so, a man may have lost a full 20 percent of his total testosterone.

While this can have physical, mental and emotional effects, it does not mean that a man’s reproductive capacity suffers. Unlike women, men can usually still father children even into advanced age.

Men who work in pharmaceutical labs, work with agricultural pesticides or who are in regular contact with industrial chemicals are known to experience greater decline in androgens than other men.

The loss of testosterone, which is more widely studied than the loss of DHEA, is typically experienced as a loss of youthful vitality. The resulting inverse ratio of lean muscle to fat means that formerly well-developed muscle tissue is reduced and fat increases. These are classic signs of what most people consider the normal aging process.

But the question is, does this have to happen?

We now know that regular exercise, especially vigorous exercise, can help people maintain a higher level of sex hormones longer and later in life. Exercise also enhances overall energy, circulation and cardiovascular health and improves mental well being.

But now a couple of significant studies out of Malaysia show that an herb from that region can also boost the body’s natural production of testosterone later in life, thus counteracting PADAM. Dr. Ishmael Tamby, a reproductive specialist in Kuala Lumpur, has studied the use of a Malaysian rainforest herb called Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia), and its effects on men.

Tamby's study was conducted by selecting thirty adult males of various ages, assessing their testosterone levels and then administering 100 milligrams of Tongkat Ali extract to test subjects daily.

The researchers discovered that the testosterone levels of all subjects rose, resulting in a reported 73 percent improvement in sexual function, a 91 percent improvement in libido and an 82 percent psychological improvement relative to sex compared to the control group.

In a recent study of a similar type, administration of Tongkat Ali resulted in a 47 percent improvement in DHEA levels.

While taking testosterone drugs can be risky due to unwanted side effects including nausea, vomiting, acne, changes in skin color and pain, no such negative effects have been reported with Tongkat Ali. This is because the herb does not contain any testosterone, but instead triggers the body’s own natural capacity to create the hormone.

In the studies conducted by Tamby and others, daily supplementary use of Tongkat Ali extract results in a feeling of youthful vigor. Malaysian athletes use the herb to maintain physical strength and lean muscle. Both men and women who take Tongkat Ali experience a boost in libido.

If you are going to use Tongkat Ali, look for supplements that contain an extract standardized to 22 percent eurypeptides. The dose used in the human studies is 100 milligrams daily.

WELLNESS: BEWARE: COLD SEASON IS BACK!

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Summer season has officially passed and yes, cold season is back. Do you know the earliest signs of cold symptoms and what to do about them? Now, moving onto cold prevention and how to mitigate the severity of cold symptoms. Luckily, there are several natural ways you can conquer a cold. There are a few vitamins you should take during the cold season to help your baseline immune system: vitamin C, vitamin A&D, and probiotics. There are other supplements that are a bit more complicated and should be started and monitored by your integrative practitioner and that includes black elderberry, Echinacea, quercetin, turmeric, zinc, and cordyceps, just to name a few options. By doing aerobic exercise regularly it make you breathe faster to help transfer oxygen from your lungs to your blood; and makes you sweat once your body heats up. These exercises help increase the body's natural virus-killing cells.

CHIROPRACTIC: CHIROPRACTIC GOES HEAD-TO-HEAD AGAINST NSAIDS AND ACUPUNCTURE  

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

This commentary reviews a brilliant series of 3 consecutive studies, comparing popular forms of treatment for chronic spinal pain, including NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), acupuncture, and chiropractic spinal adjusting for relief. The author reports that this is the first study of long-term efficacy of 3 distinct and standardized treatment regimens for patients with chronic spinal pain syndromes. Using the same outcome instruments they found that, of the 3 randomized treatments, only spinal adjusting had provided broad-based beneficial short-term AND long-term benefits from care.

It used to be that the only problems electricity caused were static cling, or a nasty shock if you were foolish enough to touch an electrical cord. Not anymore. Studies over the past 10 years prove we have a new menace to healthy living: "electropollution."

This is excessive exposure to environmental electricity known as electromagnetic radiation (EMR), now thought to pose a major threat to our well-being. In other words, we're being buzzed, and the perpetrators are not those of the winged honey-producing variety. As a result, the natural electro-magnetic field around us is severely affected or influenced causing all kinds of illnesses and pain that doctors cannot explain.

There is not enough room on this page to list all of these illnesses, but here are a few: pains and aches, high and low blood pressure, circulation-related abnormalities, headaches, migraines, neuralgia, vertebrae pain, lumbago, sciatica, phantom pain, muscle spasms, nerve inflammation, dizziness, insomnia and stress.

There are two categories of EMR. The first is ionizing radiation and includes X-rays. gamma rays and nuclear radiation. We know about X-rays. Gamma rays are not prevalent. For the most part, we're not likely to run into nuclear radiation unless we live next door to a nuclear waste dump or a very unfriendly country. That's the good news.

The bad news is the second category of EMR. This is called non-ionizing radiation and includes the 60 hertz alternating currents that power our homes and offices. Under this category is everything we hold dear for day-to-day living: electrical outlets, wires, lamps, television sets, microwave ovens, radios, tape players. telephones, electric heaters, electric blankets, blow dryers, computers and clothes dryers. Even your dishwasher is suspect, unless of course you happen to have a housemate who revels in dishpan hands.

While 60 hertz is considered to be an extremely low frequency (ELF), many hours of exposure per day is considered hazardous. Dr Elson M. Haas. author of Staying Healthy With Nutrition, explains ELF as follows: the Earth's vibration is approximately lOcps (hertz) which is in the alpha, or resting, range of our brain. The Electro Low Frequencies (ELF) common range of 45-70 hertz of most machinery and power lines is close enough to ours and to earth's vibration that it influences us, mainly in the sense of agitation or stimulation. The most general effect of this is probably in our biocycles and in increasing stress and fatigue, as well as in lowering resistance to disease. It also affects our ability to sleep and rest deeply"

Boost to Immunity

 

Dr Haas also feels that ELF has a direct effect on our immunizational systems. Because our bodies contain electrical current, it makes sense that doses of external current will rearrange our own built-in immunity. So, short of moving to the northern-most part of Greenland, how do we combat ELF? Believe it or not, by neutralizing your own magnetic field you can eliminate not only the aformentioned painful conditions but also positively treat a variety of ailments using another electronic device which enhances your own magnetic field.

The Bio-Medici has an ultra low, .7Hz frequency selection. This frequency was previously offered on clinical models many times the cost of this unit. The Bio-Medici is the only device of this type made in North America. This technology was developed in Germany by Dr. Ludwig. Advanced technology provides over 100 frequency selections. This product is  a compact, lightweight device that you wear either around your neck (like a pendant), or tucked away inside a shirt pocket.  The Bio-Medici emits a alternating low frequency electronic emission designed to compensate for the influx of radiation we receive daily within our homes and offices.

Bio-Medici can be programmed to emit anywhere from .5 to 10.5 hertz; comes with an easy-to-read manual and operates on a small single battery. Should you currently be taking prescribed medication, Bio-Medici 's electromagnetic field will facilitate the entering of medicines into the cell, increasing the healing effects by up to 50 per cent, thus allowing a reduction in the amount of medication prescribed.

Extensive clinical studies in Austria and Hungary show that therapy with an electromagnetic field can be used in combination with other therapies, and in many cases the effect of the other healing methods will be enhanced. In addition, the research results in the last few years have shown that a pulsating low frequency magnetic field (.5 to 10.5 Hz) has a wide sphere of application in medical therapy.

People suffering from atmospheric pressure changes dealing with migraine and/or ill feelings will benefit the most.

I have used this technology both personally and clinically since 1988.  I have to admit that I'm amazed every time another patient tries the unit.  The main condition I have recommended this device for is allergies.  Most patients respond well to our homeopathic allergy mix that is produced here at  our clinic but a few do not.  What is amazing is that 100 percent of the patients I have recommended this technology for with allergies have responded beautifully.  Back in the eighty when I first tried this technology I was at a soccer game with someone suffering from allergies.  I offered my device to them and within ten minutes their symptoms completely disappeared.  In reading the literature I notice it was supposed to help with sleep.  I don't have a problem with sleep but I thought I would try it anyway.  I slept like a baby and woke up druged.  I can highly recommend the Bio-Medici.

TESTIMONIALS

I used to have very serious problems with my digestion, and the Bio Medici helped me. I was so preoccupied with treating this complaint that I quite forgot to place the device on my legs in order to treat my varicose veins. But I also used the Bio Medici twice a day at the General Body Treatment setting, which returns all body functions to normal, and to my great joy I can now report that my varicose veins have almost totally disappeared. Amazing! --- JD

My wife started out by holding the Bio Medici firmly between her hands, who had become virtually unusable due to "arthritis" - a very painful inflammatory condition associated with swelling. Even her normal daily tasks had become almost impossible for her to perform. The pain disappeared - not for ever, but long enough for her to use her hands again without having to put up with incredible pain and a feeling of numbness. After one week her sense of touch returned, and she remained without pain.---DM

After two weeks, the pain and swelling in the joints of my fingers had disappeared.But that is not all: I also use the Bio Medici to strengthen my immune system and ever since I started treating myself daily with the device, I have not had any more colds.---- MH

Dr. Roger J. Callahan, a dedicated psychologist with over 40 years experience, has brought some stunning discoveries to the public that are changing the face of psychology.

The body's energy system

Our bodies have a profound electrical nature. Any beginning course in anatomy covers this. Shuffle your feet across a carpet and then touch an item made of metal. Sometimes you can see the static electricity that is discharged from your fingertip. This wouldn't be possible unless your body had an electrical nature to it.

Electricochemical messages are constantly sent throughout your body to keep it informed of what is going on. Without this energy flow you would not be able to see, hear, feel, taste or smell.

Our electrical systems are vital to our physical health. What could be more obvious? When the energy stops flowing....we die.  No one disputes it. In fact, civilization has known about this for milleniums. About 5,000 years ago, the Chinese discovered a complex system of energy circuits that run throughout the body. These energy circuits...or meridians as they are called...are the basis for modern day acupuncture, acupressure and a wide variety of other healing techniques.

This energy courses through the body and is invisible to the eye. It cannot be seen without high tech equipment. By analogy, you do not see the energy flowing through a TV set either. You know it is there, however, by its effects.

In the same way, EFT gives you striking evidence that energy flows within your body because it provides the effects that let you know it is there. By simply tapping near the end points of your energy meridians you can experience some profound changes in your emotional and physical health. These changes would not occur if there was no energy system. Western medical science tends to focus on the chemical nature of the body and has not paid much attention to these subtle, but powerful, energy flows until recent years. No one denies their existence, however, even though they have been given very little weight in medicine and no weight whatsoever in psychology. But they do exist and are attracting an expanding group of researchers.

Dr. Callahan's first experience

Here's the story.

In 1980 Dr. Callahan was working with a patient, Mary, for an intense water phobia. She suffered from frequent headaches and terrifying nightmares, both of which were related to her fear of water. To seek help, she had been going from therapist to therapist for years....with no material improvement. Dr. Callahan tried to help her by conventional means for a year and a half. He didn't make much headway either. Then one day he stepped outside the normal "boundaries" of psychotherapy. Out of curiosity, he had been studying the body's energy system and decided to tap with his fingertips under her eyes (an end point of the stomach meridian). This was prompted by her complaint of some stomach discomfort.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

To his astonishment, she announced immediately that her phobia was gone and she raced down to a nearby swimming pool and began throwing water in her face. No fear. No headaches. It all went away....including the nightmares. And it has never returned. She is totally free of her water phobia. Results like that are rare in the field of psychotherapy...but commonplace with EFT.

A first hand description.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Here's how Dr. Callahan describes it in his 1990 book, "The Rapid Treatment of Panic, Agoraphobia and Anxiety." "....I was totally unprepared for what happened. As I tapped under her eyes, Mary said, "It's gone!." "What's gone?", I asked. "My fear of water, it's gone, I don't have those awful feelings in my stomach any more!"

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

We were working in my home office and I said, with a somewhat challenging and skeptical tone, "Let's go down to the pool and see." I fully expected her to resist as usual, but, to my surprise, I had to hurry to keep up with her on the way to the pool. For the first time, she looked at the water, put her head near it and splashed water in her face, from the shallow end. I watched in amazement, as she joyfully shouted, "It's gone, it's gone!" Mary's next move frightened me. She suddenly ran toward the deep end of the pool, and this sudden total absence of fear around the pool was so unusual for her that I shouted, "Mary, be careful!" I was afraid that she might jump into the pool and drown. She laughed when she saw my alarm and reassured me; "Don't worry Doctor Callahan, I know I can't swim." Ten years experience with the treatment has since taught me that the treatment does not cause sudden stupidity. Respect for reality, I have learned, is not diminished by successful treatment. All Mary needed was that tap under the eyes. Later, I learned that most people need more. In any case, I started trying the treatments on some of my other phobic clients, and found that I got similar results in about one of five. The discovery of psychological reversal and other refinements in the treatments have now boosted our success rate to about 98%.

This, of course, got Dr. Callahan's attention. He has since refined and expanded his findings to a series of related routines. They encompass nearly every area of emotional improvement imaginable....from phobias to panic disorders to sports performance. And, along the way, he has also applied these techniques to physical problems and addictive cravings with notable success.

The source of EFT

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Dr. Callahan first learned this technique in a "" course.  Dr. George Goodheart, D.C.,  discovered in the 1950’s a diagnostic system called "Applied Kinesiology". This system first uncovered how these points could be used in correcting dysfunction within the body. Chiropractic physicians have been using this information for several years and helping the body return itself to normal health.

Case history  - Alcoholism

Aaron got completely over his addiction to alcohol. This, of course, is a much more serious addiction than coffee, soft drinks or chocolate. He went to bed drunk every night and spent his days with a hangover. In hiswords, "Alcohol was my God." He needed several sessions with EFT and he performed the routines several times per day. As a result, withdrawal was easy. In the early stages, he walked by his favorite beer at the supermarket with a sense of pride. And now, one year later, he finds it repulsive. He has no cravings for alcohol whatsoever. He has his life back. He even passed up a New Year's Eve party because he "didn't want to be around a bunch of drunks." Here's a note of common sense. Once an addiction is broken, that doesn't mean you can't become re-addicted.

Once you get by your addiction to alcohol, or anything else, stay away from it or you will need to break the addiction again. EFT does not allow you to "have a little now and then" of your addictive substance.

Case history  - Fear of needles

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Connie was very anxious around needles. She would become nauseous and often faint when it was necessary to have her blood taken. This was limiting, indeed, if she was to have regular physical examinations and maintain good health. EFT was applied to her for just a few minutes. The fear went away and her next exposure to needles was without any fear whatsoever. This is typical....especially with phobic responses like this. Usually just a few minutes with the techniques creates a lasting result. This is true even if the object of the phobia (needles in this case) is not present at the time. In those few times where the actual situation still brings on some of the fear it usually only takes another round of EFT to eliminate it permanently.

If you or someone you love is having a problem with anxiety, depression, a phobia or some other issue you think EFT could help please discuss it with Dr. Keefe.

VEGA Testing is based on the phenomenon of "medicine testing" found by Dr. Reinhardt Voll, M.D., a German medical doctor, in his work with electrical acupuncture. Dr. Helmut Schimmel, M.D., also of Germany, later developed Dr. Voll's work into a system of substance testing now known as VEGA testing.

VEGA testing is based on the effect of electrical resistance changes of the skin on certain acupuncture points (low electrical resistance areas) in response to differing substances that are either beneficial or detrimental to the body.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

Dr. George Goodheart, D.C., U.S.A., discovered in the 1950's that the muscles of the body, in the presence of certain substances, would either become weaker or stronger. This finding is part of a diagnostic system called "Applied Kinesiology". Based on this phenomena, a simple arm or leg check can monitor the body's response to any given substance.

Because this particular procedure is more objective and can be performed repetitively without fatiguing the body, this is the system that we use.

Procedures

VEGA testing, as noted above, can be performed by several different methods. At our clinic, we utilize a monitoring system over 2 reactive or sensitive points on the body. These points are determined by the use of what is called a "Disorder Control", a toxic substance. This substance will cause a response in sensitive areas of the body. These sensitive areas are pre-determined through testing, and then probes are placed over two of these sensitive areas on the body. The person being tested is usually in a supine position, and the response is noted from changes in the arms or legs, depending on which is easiest to monitor.

Subsequently, a series of substances is placed within the honeycomb and the body's responses to these substances are noted. Depending on what substances are reactive, information is given that can be used, along with the patient's symptomatology, history, and other clinical data to help develop a more complete diagnostic picture, as well as a treatment protocol.

Vega Testing's Scope

VEGA testing is a multi-faceted diagnostic procedure. It can be used to determine if a patient has an allergic tendency, and, if they do have allergies, what particular antigens they are allergic to. VEGA testing allows us to find the major organs that are under the most stress. It also helps to determine the level of stress of each organ or part of the body. It can monitor the progress that a patient is making, without having to re-run expensive laboratory tests.

The VEGA test method allows for nutritional evaluation to determine if there are serious mineral or vitamin deficiencies, as well as food overloads, e.g., over-consumption of salts or sugars, proteins, etc. VEGA testing also gives some information about the emotional status of a patient. We can determine if the nervous system is being stressed by some strong deep emotions, and what possible remedies might be effective in helping the emotional processing.

The VEGA test method allows for determining what nutritional products or remedies might be effective in the treatment of certain conditions. VEGA test method also allows for the determination of what is called, "Causal Chain", or the domino effect that is taking place in the body. Most of the time when one organ malfunctions, it affects another organ, which affects another, etc. To find the original, or most stressed organ, can be very important in understanding a patient's particular health problems.

VEGA test method is a quick, easy method of developing an acupuncture diagnosis as to which meridians or electrical circuits within the body are malfunctioning.

Through VEGA testing we can also tell if dental fillings are having an adverse effect on the body due to mercury leaching into the system. It will indicate the presence of a toxic overload, and tell if that overload might be due simply to metabolic toxins, or if it is from heavy metals or insecticides that have entered through the environment's food or water supply.

VEGA testing also can give us an idea of which areas of the body (which arteries, etc.) may be being affected by excessive cholesterol levels.

Biological Score (Age)

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK PIC

In the Vega test system the concept of bio-score, based on evaluating the body's response to 21 ampules for toxic load of the body, relates to the level of over-all stress or disease within the body. If we gave each organ that was malfunctioning a numerical value, then added them all up, that is the idea behind the bio-score.

Dr. Keefe, Keefe Clinic. Tulsa Chiropractor, pain, natural health care.

CLICK PIC

By having a score like this when starting therapy we can evaluate our treatment program any time we would like. As the body heals itself the score will reflect this by going down. If the score becomes fixed then a change in the treatment program becomes necessary. The bio-score is based on the body's reaction to one or more diagnostic ampoules in a set of 21. The more ampoules that the body reacts to, the more problems that represents. If you react to two ampoules, say number 7 and 18, then your score would be 18x2. If you reacted to 3, 10, 16, 21 then your score would be 21x4. Knowing each number within your score is not important, just your top number and how many, tell the story. In those two examples, 18x2 would be better than 21x4.

  • The following tells what to expect with different readings:
  • TWO SCORES: PROGNOSIS EXCELLENT MILD IMMUNE STRESS,2-6 MONTHS OF CARE.
  • THREE SCORES: CHRONIC IMMUNE STRESS,6-9 MONTHS OF CARE.

50% of successful quitters did it cold turkey: the other 50% quit gradually. The first 48 hours are critical for most people once you pass them, it will be easier each day. So pick the tips that suit you.

  • Smoke one less cigarette each day.
  • Make each cigarette a special decision, and put off making the decision.
  • Don't give up cigarettes - completely carry one with you in case of need. You'll find you're saving it - permanently.
  • Don't quit "forever" just stop for a day - and tomorrow try it for another day, and tomorrow and tomorrow.
  • Tell your friends and family you're quitting. A public commitment bolsters will power.
  • Pick Q (QUIT) Day and quit.
  • Hide all evidence of cigarettes, ashtrays, matches, etc, so you aren't reminded of your renunciation.
  • Lay in a supply of chewing gum, celery sticks, nuts, carrot sticks, etc.
  • Nervousness, hunger, etc., are signs of the body's readjustment. If they're hard to manage, consult me.
  • We carry supplements that help cut the craving and are safe, ask about them.

If you need help, we can employ auriculo-therapy which is a physical therapy modality used in addictive disease. This therapy consists of specific micro-electrical currents which are directed to isolated points on the ear which triggers the release of pituitary hormones (endorphins) which is thought to alter simulative physiological brain pathways.

Effects Of Auricular Therapy On Drug Addictions

Dr Keefe, Keefe Clinic, Natural Health Care, Tulsa Chiropractor, Diet, Pain,

It has been found that by stimulating these acupuncture points in the ear, you could enhance what is known as an "award cascade" effect from the limbic system. This re-balances an addict's chemistry. It can change the addiction from an overwhelming compulsion to a manageable situation which the patient can then eliminate. Certainly, many drug addicts would give anything to rid themselves of their habits - but that over-whelming compulsion to use the drug is more than they can overcome. Thus, this help is a wonderful asset to the addict on a physiological level.

It is through this mechanism that a person is able to break the addictive habits of smoking, alcohol, drugs, etc.

The Prostate

ProstateAnat2

The prostate is a variable-sized gland located in the male pelvis, usually the size of a walnut measuring 3-4 centimeters long by 3-5 centimeters in width. Onaverage the gland weighs about 20 grams. It is found behind the pubic bone, in front of the rectum, and below the bladder, surrounded by the pelvic muscles.

The prostate surrounds the urethra which carries urine from the bladder to the penis and travels in the center of the gland. The seminal vesicles attach to the prostate and produce material that mixes with prostatic fluid to form semen. The tubes from the testicles carry sperm to the prostate where the sperm are mixed with the prostate and seminal vesicle fluid. This fluid is then ejaculated during orgasm by a connection to the urethra called the ejaculatory ducts.

Prostatitis

This is the most-neglected male disease in the U.S. It strikes more men than either prostate cancer or prostate enlargement. It can be one of the most miserable diseases inflicted on men. It strikes them at younger ages. It lasts longer.

SYMPTOMS:

These mimic the symptoms of prostate growth, such as:

  • Frequent urge to urinate
  • Difficult start, dribbling
  • Nighttime trips to the bathroom

The symptom that sets prostatitis apart from prostate growth is pain. This varies from mild to so severe it renders a man helpless. Indeed, some people refer to a man in severe prostatitis pain as a "prostate cripple."

Diagnosis of non-cancerous prostate growth. This condition is normally identified by its symptoms. The most common include:

  • Problems getting the stream to start.

The prostate begins to enlarge in all men usually starting in their 40's. Once growth starts, it might not stop as long as life goes on. Effects of this growth vary from almost unbearable misery to minor annoyance, and points in-between. The general rule is that one man in four over age 60 will become so aggravated by BPH he will need physical relief.

Why doctors label this condition benign," only they can explain, because it is anything but benign. If not properly cared for, it can lead to extremely serious consequences, including kidney damage and failure.

It is important to know that the prostate grows in two different ways. In one growth, cells multiply around the urine passageway through the prostate and squeeze it much like you could squeeze a straw in a cola.

The second type of growth is much worse. This is middle-lobe growth in which cells grow into the urine tube and even up and into the bladder. This type of growth, called "cork in a bottle," can be cleared up only through surgery.

So prostate enlargement is NOT simply a case of too many prostate cells. This growth involves hormones; it appears in different kinds of prostate cells; and it affects each man differently.

What about this kind of growth and prostate cancer? People sometimes ask if an enlarging prostate increases the risk of prostate cancer. There is NO connection. A man can have prostate growth with no cancer. He can have prostate growth with cancer. And he can have prostate cancer with no enlargement.

What is cancer of the prostate (CaP)?

A: Normal prostate cells live and die according to their natural schedule. After a cell lives its allotted time, it reproduces itself exactly, then dies. For some reason not yet clear, a prostate cell does not die when it should. Instead, it divides into more cells as uncontrolled and death-defying as the original. Uncontrolled divisions from that single cell continue until the cells clump to form a malignant tumor.

If nothing stops the growth of malignant cells, they can break off the parent tumor, travel within the body and lodge elsewhere.

The Prevention And Cure Of Prostate Problems

General health habits can help prevent most prostate problems. Simply walking helps massage the tissues of the prostate an area structures and improve circulation and nutrition for prostate health. Eating right for your body type can help keep a better hormonal balance which in turn prevents prostate problems. A handful of pumpkin seeds are rich in nutrients the prostate needs. Sexual regularity can be helpful. The following nutrients have been helpful in preventing and correcting prostate problems: pollen extract, essential fatty acids, vitamin E, chlorophyll, zinc, B-6, fish liver oil are just a few of the products that we use to correct prostate disorders. Misalignment in the low back can interfere with the normal nerve control to the prostate and many times the correction of this can cause dramatic improvement. Acupuncture can be helpful in the overall treatment of prostate problems. We carry several prostate formulas that we have found very useful in the treatment of enlarged prostate and prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is one of the slowest developing forms of cancer and yields itself to nutritional therapy.

Chiropractic and natural health care can resolve prostate disorders 80% of the time. There is no other healthcare approach that has a higher success rate or even tries to treat the underlying causes of prostate problems. Most approaches just deal with the end result by surgery and drugs. Pharmaceutical and surgical approaches to prostate problems have a very high side effect rate and can cause more problems than they fix.
